But If I had to pick one that could be my "One and Only" it would probably be the 1936 National Chicle Pastels (R312) issue.

That’s my fav, too. The rosy cheeks, the staged follow-through swing, the youthful look… it’s got it all! P.S. Let the mocking begin on the size of this slab!

And Joe is so young he was still misspelling his name when signing.;)

I think you posted this a couple years ago on another Joe D thread. This is in my top 5 favorite Dimaggio items. Great action shot.

My favorite has to be the 38 Goudey. I also like the 36 Fine Pens (can't get my card image to attach), but I agree with everyone that the 41 is the most iconic. JT

This is my one and only. I love the color!

Late to the DiMaggio party, but my one and only would be this 1935 Pebble Beach PC with his autograph on it. Done as a Clothing promotion back in 1935 with him in his San Fran Seals uniform.

I keep meaning to upgrade this. It’s my favorite Joe D

This one's maybe my favorite card in my collection, let alone the Joe Ds. I just love the SFness of his Zeenut.

I don’t have a DiMaggio card from his playing days (yet), but I would like to show off my 1946-48 era DiMaggio model, Yankees index bat.

Exhibitman 09-22-2023 11:10 PM

That bromide is spectacular.

I like this one:

I personally love all Joe’s oversized cards and premiums. This is mine and one of my favorites of his.

I once had the same autographed card (maybe not the exact one) which was my favorite but in the late 1990's I liked cash more. Thought $2500 was a good price for it at that time. I'm guessing that would not touch today's market for the card.

I did not save a picture of it but it also did not have the tab.

What’s the history on this piece? My knowledge of Joe D. autos is that he never signed anything with MM, so I’m intrigued by this.

I like the 1940 Play Ball best.

robertsmithnocure 09-25-2023 06:05 PM

I would also vote for the Zeenut batting pose of DiMaggio.

Don't know it's my fave but it's definitely rare...

A rookie year Joe D (it even says it on the "card")...

If I could only have one, I'd probably choose the Goudey, with cartoons. It seems to be a somewhat polarizing card. The artwork isn't for everyone. As many have said, though, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. To me, this is a beautiful baseball card.

Perhaps oddly, I don't care for the version without cartoons.

I agree 100% I have the '39, 40 and 41 Play Ball as well as the Fine Pen from '36 but my favorite is the 38 Goudey. Here's mine.
